Types and names of flowers for floristic use from which we create bouquets and flower arrangements.
These are cut flowers and greenery that we use in flower arrangements, pictures of flowers are illustrative, after clicking on the flower in the atlas of flowers are examples of bouquets that we arrange from the flower. We update flowers and pictures, some bouquets and flowers are not visible in the given season. We also try to add non-traditional cut flowers, meadow flowers, non-traditional ornaments and greenery for flower arrangements. We change our assortment of cut flowers and according to the flower season, some pictures of flowers are not perfect, we are very sorry about that. We would like to divide the flowers in the flowers catalog according to color, we are preparing this distinction of flowers.
